Defending world champions England and South Africa will look to emerge from their shock losses in their last games at the ICC Cricket World Cup 2023 as they face each other in match no. 20 of the ICC Cricket World Cup 2023 at the Wankhede Stadium in Mumbai on Saturday. England were stunned by Afghanistan by 69 runs in Delhi in their last match while South Africa were humiliated by the Netherlands in their previous encounter in Dharamsala last week.
England will be buoyed by the return of talismanic all-rounder Ben Stokes, who is fit enough to play his first game of the World Cup 2023. “Yeah, I think I’ve got so many options within the squad selection it is always tough and you’re working out the right balance, always venue dependent as well so been a good chance to see the wicket here today and gather a bit more information as well. But obviously Ben trained really well last night. It’s great to see him back. He obviously brings a lot on the field and with his presence and leadership skills as well as someone who is always good to turn to,” England captain Jos Buttler said about Ben Stokes fitness.
South Africa captain Temba Bavuma said the team had left behind the shock loss to the Netherlands behind them. “We’ve had hard conversations as a team, obviously looking at our performances and where things went bad for us from a batting, bowling, even from a fielding point of view. We’ve put that behind us. We’ve obviously got the challenge of England starting and we are, I guess preparing to get ourselves in the right mental state, physically as well, to play our best cricket there,” Bavuma said in Mumbai.
